Lighter .... Patrol
I made my Patrol alot lighter this weekend. I installed two camplights. One at the back on the big barn door and one just under the rear view mirror. Check out the pics

- This light gives enough light to work at the back of the Patrol. I can also see a lot better in my fridge.

Re: Lighter .... Patrol

Dis baie slim. Dis oulike liggies daai Vaatjie. Sun sensors en al. Baie netjies.
Ek het my interne dakliggies met 5 LED's voor en 6 LED's agter vervang. Baie helder en gebruik min krag!!

Re: Lighter .... Patrol
Sorry Vaatjie. I should have been clearer. I know about the cool camping lights that you make, but I would like to look into changing the bulbs inside the existing dome lights to LED technology.
